CRUCIBLES Podcast
by The Referent Group
The CRUCIBLES Podcast (hosted by The Referent Group) explores leadership through stories of defining moments.A crucible experience, according to scholars Warren Bennis and Robert Thomas, is "a trial and a test — a point of deep self-reflection that forces us to question who we are and what matters to us." Each episode ventures into a moment or event that disrupted assumptions, tested identity, and forced reflection. The stories aren’t about winning or surviving. They’re about meaning, transformation, and the ways hardship reshapes how we see ourselves and the world.

Selfless Service: Dave Magarity, Maggie Dixon, and the Army Women's Basketball Team
In the fall of 2005, just weeks before the start of the season, Army West Point Women's Basketball hired 28-year-old Maggie Dixon as its head coach. By March of 2006, Coach Dixon had led the program — in thrilling fashion — to its first-ever Division I NCAA Tournament appearance. Three weeks after facing Pat Summitt, Candace Parker, and the University of Tennessee in the first round, tragedy struck. In our inaugural episode of the Crucibles Podcast, Doug Crandall, Tom Hustead, and Matt Kincaid of The Referent Group sit down with Coach Dave Magarity and team captain Michelle Piasecki to reflect on the crucible that changed their lives, and many others, on April 6, 2006.
